Which process primarily causes horizon mixing during pedogenesis?

💡 Explanation

Organism activity causes soil horizons to mix due to bioturbation: burrowing animals and plant roots physically redistribute soil. This process integrates materials across layers because faunal transport acts against gravitational sorting, rather than any purely chemical process influencing aggregation.
